Wittenberg’s MSA Program combines analytics techniques and topics with elements of organizational

THE PROBLEM
Big data challenges and opportunities are driving change in virtually every industry – and this trend is only increasing.
However, data science and analysis alone will not impact an organization without skilled professionals who can connect these
insights to the needs of organizations and their leaders. People with these skills are truly valuable – and still too rare.
THE SOLUTION
Wittenberg’s Master of Science in Analytics program is designed to provide students with critical skills and applicable
knowledge to tackle even the most challenging real-world or business problems. The MSA program helps students become the
skilled analysts and problem solvers so many organizations need.
We provide students with a high quality education and constant opportunities to engage instructors and mentors with
significant professional experience and contacts. Students will not only gain skills and expertise in their target field but will
team up with peers to tackle problems in other areas.

Data is at the heart of so many problems and
opportunities we face in just about every aspect of
our lives. Those who can shed light on this data
and make their insights actionable for other
managers are truly rare and so valuable in every
type of organization. Wittenberg’s MSA program
is built with the sole goal of developing these
skills and
perspectives in our students.
